    Snorkeled with my two second
    hand suits that I bought
    recently and they did not work
    out. It turned out that they
    are too big...:(

    Where did I go with my force fins?

    Not very far...

    I am a beginner diver who got lucky to get a second hand pair of Force Fins from my regular buddy for free (that I may have to give away if the boots of my future dry suit won't fit in them ).

    Here is a couple of places I went with my Force Fins:

    Underwater swing at Redondo Beach, Des Moines (WA)

    My first boat dive somewhere between Whidbey and Camano Islands

    (I hope it works...Somebody should make scubaboard photo gallery more user friendly)

    Cheers

    Don't get confused. There will be no giving away of the Force Fins.

    That's the best you can hope for! The barracuda is tolerating you and your force fins to a point that it is letting you take a picture!

    Sunday May 3rd 2009 my Force Fins were at the Backside of Anacapa Island, off the coast of California

    Jahmin and Jordan Lerum with their Force Fin Tan Deltas, Me with Excellerating Force Fin Tan Delta Sapphire Blue and Art Phillipe diving his favorite the Extra Force Fin Tan Delta Ruby Red.
    The visibility was less than desirable, but any diving is ......... well you know the rest.

    When I asked Jahmin and Jordan why they choose Force Fins Tan Delta
    tandelta_product
    they told me "Well they are the best fins out there and they are perfect for the work we do documenting surfing and natural history in the tropics. Great for travel and they have the power we need"

    Next time when the visibility is better we will show some pictures from underwater.

    and my Excellerating Force Fins excel_force_fin_product waiting to get wet again.

    On my move to Florida I only brought my Tan Delta's, Flying Force and the SD-1 Military.
    I might have to get more!
